|  Disconnect between Business and IT
Interesting blog by Dr. Jim Anderson on disconnects between business and IT and how some companies are getting rid of the CIO position completely. Dr. Jim believes that this is caused by misalignment between business and IT on goals/priorities and business not realizing the true value of what IT does.
CIOs In Crisis: Do we have a problem here?
Enterprise Architecture aims at addressing this very issue by:
- Implementing a common language (Business architecture) and formal communication process for business and IT to communicate
- Establishing mutually agreed upon goals and priorities with a good understanding of the value they deliver to the business
- Implementing a governance model that monitors and provides course correction
- Establishing concrete measurements to communicate the value IT is delivering to the business
Could the CIOs discussed in the blog face a different outcome if they had adopted EA? I sure think so..
What do you think?
